Abstract: The COVID-19 pandemic has had an unprecedented and widespread impact on education, significantly affecting students worldwide. Although many studies have investigated this impact in the last 5 years, we still lack empirical knowledge about the long-lasting impact of this most recent pandemic on performance in the 2020’s generation of students. This quantitative study aims to evaluate the long-term impact of the pandemic on student performance, especially in the Software Engineering course. To achieve this goal, we collected historical data from Software Engineering students three years – prior to (2019) and post (2022 and 2023) COVID-19 – such as their grades in repeated questions throughout the semesters. We employed statistical methods to analyze this quantitative data. As one of our results, we identified that the pandemic negatively influenced student performance in 2022, especially in the first-semester post-pandemic. However, we also observed that the impact was mitigated in th e following semesters of 2022 and 2023. This result is a breath of hope since it suggests that the current generation of students has overcome the challenges imposed by the pandemic period. (More)
